When a communication device communicates on the unlicensedspectrum, a principle of Listen Before Talk (LBT) needs to be based,that is, before the communication device sends a signal on a channel ofthe unlicensed spectrum, channel listening (or channel sensing) needs tobe performed first, and only when a result of channel listening is thatthe channel is idle, can the communication device send the signal. Ifthe result of channel listening by the communication device on theunlicensed spectrum is that the channel is busy, the signal cannot besent.

There is a need for a terminal device to find a cell at an asynchronousraster frequency and determine Remaining Minimum System Information(RMSI) of the cell in the unlicensed spectrum, so how to determine aControl-Resource Set (CORESET) of the RMSI of the cell is an urgentproblem to be solved.

FIGS. 2 to 4 show relationships between Synchronization Signal block(SSB)/Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) and CORESET of RMSI. In FIG. 2,SSB and CORESET of RMSI are in a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)relationship (called pattern 1). In FIG. 3, SSB and CORESET of RMSI arein a relatively fixed relationship and are not overlapped in a timedomain and a frequency domain (called pattern 2). In FIG. 4, SSB andCORESET of RMSI are in a relatively fixed relationship and in arelationship of Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) (called pattern3).

Herein, the SSB may include a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), aSecondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), and a Physical BroadcastingChannel (PBCH).

According to the above three relationships, in 5G, a terminal device maydetermine a position of the CORESET of the RMSI through aRMSI-PDCCH-Config field in a Master Information Block (MIB) message. TheRMSI-PDCCH-Config field is composed of 8 bits, wherein 4 bits are usedfor determining information of the CORESET, for example, the 4 bits mayconstitute a ControlResourceSetZero field; the other 4 bits may be usedfor confirming information of a search space, for example, the 4 bitsmay constitute a SearchSpaceZero field.

With regard to information used for determining the CORESET, aiming atthe above three patterns, the terminal device may acquire a currentpattern situation, a CORESET frequency domain resource size (Number ofRBs), a CORESET time domain resource size (Number of Symbols), and arelative frequency domain Offset between the SSB and the CORESET of theRMSI.

Here, the Offset may be understood as an offset between a minimumResource Block (RB) number of CORESET and an RB number of a minimumCommon Resource Block (CRB) overlapped with a first RB of the SSB, thatis, the offset here is a frequency domain offset of the CORESET of theRMSI relative to the SSB.

5G defines a method of determining CORESET of cell RMSI by SSB at aSynchronization raster frequency. Specifically, first, in a process ofcell search, a terminal device may determine a frequency domain positionof SSB through a synchronous raster frequency predefined by a protocol.Then, the terminal device may determine a frequency domain position ofthe CORESET of the RMSI based on an indication of a limited and specificoffset, that is, an offset between the CORESET of the RMSI and the SSBindicated by the RMSI-PDCCH-Config field with reference to thedetermined frequency domain position of the SSB.

The SSB in the above content is an SSB used for defining a cell, thatis, an SSB sent at a synchronous raster frequency, and the SSB isgenerally associated with the RMSI, that is, after detecting an SSB, theterminal device may correspondingly detect the RMSI corresponding to theSSB, that is, it may acquire cell information. It should be understoodthat a name of the SSB is not limited in an implementation of thepresent disclosure, that is, the SSB may be called a Cell define SSB(CD-SSB), or a second type of SSB, or other name.

The above method of determining a resource position of CORESET of RMSIbased on an SSB at a synchronous raster frequency is effective in a 5Gsystem. However, in an unlicensed spectrum, since there is a need tofind a cell at an asynchronous raster frequency and determine SystemInformation Block (SIB) information of the cell, the above method willno longer be applicable.

In order to deepen understanding of the implementations of the presentdisclosure, an unlicensed spectrum is briefly introduced below.

An unlicensed spectrum is a spectrum divided for countries and regionsthat may be used for radio device communication. The spectrum may beconsidered as a shared spectrum, that is, communication devices indifferent communication systems may use the spectrum and may not applyfor exclusive spectrum authorization from the government, as long asthey meet a regulatory requirement on the spectrum set by countries orregions. In order to enable various communication systems using theunlicensed spectrum for wireless communication to coexist friendly onthe spectrum, a principle of Listen Before Talk (LBT) needs to be based,that is, before a communication device sends a signal on a channel ofthe unlicensed spectrum, channel listening (or channel sensing) needs tobe performed first, and only when a result of channel listening is thatthe channel is idle, can the communication device send the signal. Ifthe result of channel listening by the communication device on theunlicensed spectrum is that the channel is busy, the signal cannot besent. And in order to ensure fairness, in one transmission, a durationof signal transmission by the communication device using the channel onthe unlicensed spectrum may not exceed a Maximum Channel Occupation Time(MCOT).

Since the unlicensed spectrum is a shared spectrum, there may be a casethat different operators or companies share a same frequency band orfrequency, and at this time, various network users may use a limitedchannel resource through competition. At this time, a problem which mayoccur is that, if both operators A and B deploy cells ID25(A) andID25(B) with a same cell ID on a same frequency, and both of the cellsare used as auxiliary cells, their synchronization signals or SSBs maybe deployed and sent at asynchronous raster frequencies.

In addition, in this case, in order to distinguish, by the terminaldevice, different operators' information to avoid a problem such as cellconfusion or potential wrong scheduling caused by different operatorsdeploying cells with a same cell ID at a same frequency, the terminaldevice may further need to determine, through SIB1 or another broadcastmessage, network information such as a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN)or a Cell Global Identifier (CGI), or global cell ID information.

Therefore, how a terminal device determines RMSI (SIB1) of a cell whereSSB of an asynchronous raster frequency is located is an urgent problemto be solved. The existing technology cannot solve the problem. Forexample, referring to FIG. 5, after the terminal device finds SSB1 at asynchronous raster frequency, it may determine a frequency domainposition of CORESET of RMSI according to indication information in MIB.Since in the existing technology, only limited frequency domainpositions of SSBs relative to CORESET of RMSI are considered whenRMSI-PDCCH-Config is designed. However, for an SSB at an asynchronousraster frequency, this kind of relative positions are more, and relativeoffsets from frequency domain positions of SSBs at these asynchronousraster frequencies to the CORESET of the RMSI are also more, and anindication capability of RMSI-PDCCH-Config of an existing system may beexceeded. Therefore, after the terminal device finds SSB2 at anasynchronous raster frequency, the terminal device cannot determine aposition of CORESET of RMSI based on indication information in anexisting MIB.

In view of this, an implementation of the present disclosure provides awireless communication method, which may effectively determine afrequency domain position of CORESET of RMSI associated with SSB on anasynchronous raster.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a wireless communication method 200according to an implementation of the present disclosure. The methodshown in FIG. 6 may be performed by a terminal device. The terminaldevice may be, for example, the terminal device 120 shown in FIG. 1.

It should be understood that technical solutions of implementations ofthe present disclosure may be applied to various communicationscenarios, for example, a scenario of an unlicensed spectrum, or anothercommunication scenario, which is not specifically limited by theimplementations of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 6, the method 200 may include at least part offollowing contents.

In 210, a terminal device detects a first type of SSB at a frequency onan asynchronous raster.

In 220, the terminal device determines, based on the first type of SSB,a frequency domain position (referred to as a target frequency domainposition for convenience of description) of CORESET of RMSI associatedwith the first type of SSB.

Herein, the first type of SSB mainly refers to an SSB that is not asecond type of SSB. In an implementation of the present disclosure, thefirst type of SSB may also be called non-CD SSB or other name. In 5G, inaddition to the second type of SSB, considering factors such asmeasurement, a network device may send some SSBs additionally, and theseSSBs may not be sent at a frequency on a synchronous raster.Essentially, these SSBs are measurement reference signals. However, asSSBs, they also carry Physical cell ID (PCI) information and informationin MIB. Therefore, this type of SSB is referred to as the first type ofSSB in an implementation of the present disclosure.

The association between the first type of SSB and the RMSI of the abovecontent may be understood as: the first type of SSB and the RMSI belongto a same cell.

In order to describe the implementations of the present disclosure moreclearly, an implementation mode of determining the target frequencydomain position by the terminal device based on the first type of SSBwill be described in detail with reference to four implementations.

Implementation 1

After a terminal device detects a first type of SSB actually sent by anetwork device at a first frequency, the terminal device may determine areference frequency domain position of a second type of SSB, and thendetermine a target frequency domain position according to the referencefrequency domain position of the second type of SSB and a first offset.

Specifically, the terminal device may determine a second frequency on asynchronous raster within a sub-band where the first frequency islocated according to the first frequency on an asynchronous raster, andfurther, the terminal device may determine the reference frequencydomain position of the second type of SSB according to the secondfrequency.

The first frequency may be pre-configured by the network device to theterminal device. Illustratively, the network device may performconfiguring by Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, for example, thenetwork device may configure the first frequency to the terminal deviceby an RRC reconfiguration message.

In an implementation of the present disclosure, there may be at leastone synchronous raster frequency corresponding to the first frequencywithin the sub-band where the first frequency is located. In FIG. 7,there is only one synchronous raster frequency corresponding to thefirst frequency within the sub-band where the first frequency islocated. In FIG. 8, there are two synchronous raster frequenciescorresponding to the first frequency within the sub-band where the firstfrequency is located.

When there are multiple synchronous raster frequencies corresponding tothe first frequency within the sub-band where the first frequency islocated, the terminal device determines the second frequency, including:the terminal device determines multiple frequencies on a synchronousraster based on the first frequency, and then the terminal devicedetermines the second frequency among the multiple frequencies.

In an implementation, the terminal device may determine the secondfrequency according to a distance between each frequency in the multiplefrequencies and the first frequency or a distance between each frequencyin the multiple frequencies and a center of the sub-band where the firstfrequency is located.

Illustratively, the terminal device may determine a frequency closest tothe first frequency among multiple frequencies as the second frequency.

Illustratively, the terminal device may determine a frequency farthestfrom the first frequency among multiple frequencies as the secondfrequency.

Illustratively, the terminal device may determine a frequency amongmultiple frequencies which is closest to the center of the sub-bandwhere the first frequency is located as the second frequency.

Illustratively, the terminal device may determine a frequency amongmultiple frequencies which is farthest from the center of the sub-bandwhere the first frequency is located as the second frequency.

In the implementation, if the quantity of frequencies (called thirdfrequencies for convenience of description) determined by the terminaldevice according to the above implementation is greater than 1, theterminal device may select among the third frequencies again todetermine the second frequency.

For example, the terminal device may determine a frequency higher thanthe first frequency among the third frequencies as the second frequency.

Or, the terminal device may determine a frequency lower than the firstfrequency among the third frequencies as the second frequency.

Or, if there are multiple third frequencies determined by the terminaldevice according to a distance between each frequency among the multiplefrequencies and the first frequency, the terminal device may determinethe second frequency according to a distance between each frequencyamong the third frequencies and the center of the sub-band where thefirst frequency is located.

Similarly, if there are multiple third frequencies determined by theterminal device according to a distance between each frequency among themultiple frequencies and the center of the sub-band where the firstfrequency is located, the terminal device may determine the secondfrequency according to a distance between each frequency among the thirdfrequencies and the center of the sub-band where the first frequency islocated.

In another implementation, referring to FIG. 8 again, the terminaldevice may receive fourth indication information, and the fourthindication information is used for indicating the second frequency.After receiving the fourth indication information, the terminal devicemay determine the second frequency among the multiple frequenciesaccording to the fourth indication information.

In the implementation, the fourth indication information may only needto indicate a certain frequency among multiple frequencies, so theimplementation may save signaling overhead. For example, when there are13 synchronous raster frequencies within the sub-band where the firstfrequency is located, the fourth indication information may indicatewhich synchronous raster frequency among the above multiple frequenciesis available through 4 bits.

Optionally, in an implementation of the present disclosure, thereference frequency domain position of a second type of SSB may refer toany one of following frequency domain positions: (a) a reference centerfrequency position of the second type of SSB; (b) a reference lower edgefrequency domain position of the second type of SSB; (c) an upper edgeposition of the second type of SSB; or (d) an RB boundary frequencydomain position of CRB overlapped with the second type of SSB.

Optionally, the method 200 may further include: the terminal devicereceives first indication information, and the first indicationinformation is used for indicating the first offset. Herein, the firstindication information may be carried in the MIB of the first type ofSSB.

A size of the first offset may be a size of an offset between thereference frequency domain position of the second type of SSB and thetarget frequency domain position. The first offset may be an offsetbetween the reference frequency domain position of the second type ofSSB and the target frequency domain position, or the first offset mayalso be an offset in other physical meaning, which is not specificallylimited in implementations of the present disclosure.

When the first offset is an offset between the reference frequencydomain position of the second type of SSB and the target frequencydomain position, the first offset may be any one of following offsets: adeviation between a minimum RB of the second type of SSB and a minimumRB of the CORESET of RMSI; a deviation between a maximum RB of thesecond type of SSB and a maximum RB of the CORESET of RMSI; or adeviation between a center RB of the second type of SSB and a center RBof the CORESET of RMSI.

For example, when the second type of SSB includes 20 RBs, the center RBof the second type of SSB is the 11th RB.

Optionally, the minimum RB of the second type of SSB in the abovecontent may further be a minimum CRB overlapped with the second type ofSSB, and the maximum RB of the second type of SSB may further be amaximum CRB overlapped with the second type of SSB. Or, the minimum RB,the maximum RB, or the center RB of the second type of SSB may furtherbe a minimum or maximum RB overlapped with the RB.

For example, a sending position of RMSI is CRB 10 and a sending positionof the second type of SSB is CRB 13.5 (representing the 7th subcarrierof CRB 14), then the minimum RB of the second type of SSB is CRB 13.

For another example, a sending position of RMSI is CRB 20 and a sendingposition of the second type of SSB is CRB 23.5, then the maximum RB ofthe second type of SSB is CRB 24.

Optionally, the first offset may include any one of following: (a) atleast one RB; (b) at least one subcarrier; or (c) at least one RB and atleast one subcarrier. That is, the first offset may be an RB-leveloffset, or a subcarrier-level offset, or RB-level and subcarrier-leveloffsets.

When the first offset is the RB-level and subcarrier-level offsets, thefirst indication information may indicate the RB-level offset and thesubcarrier-level offset respectively through first sub-information andsecond sub-information.

It should be noted that the second type of SSB in an implementation ofthe present disclosure is not actually transmitted, but is an assumedSSB only for determining a frequency domain position of the CORESET ofRMSI associated with the first type of SSB.

Implementation 2

As shown in FIG. 9, after the terminal device detects the first type ofSSB actually sent by the network device on the first frequency, theterminal device may determine the second offset, and then determine thetarget frequency domain position according to the second offset, thefirst offset and a frequency domain position of the first type of SSB.

Specifically, a sum of the first offset and the second offset is afourth offset, that is, the terminal device may determine an offsetbetween the frequency domain position of the first type of SSB and thetarget frequency domain position according to the first offset and thesecond offset, and then the terminal device may determine the targetfrequency domain position based on the frequency domain position of thefirst type of SSB and the fourth offset.

Optionally, the frequency domain position of the first type of SSB mayrefer to any one of following frequency domain positions: (a) a centerfrequency position of the first type of SSB; (b) a frequency domainposition of a lower edge of the first type of SSB; (c) a frequencydomain position of an upper edge of the first type of SSB; or (d) an RBboundary frequency domain position of CRB overlapped with the first typeof SSB.

Optionally, the second offset may include any one of following: (a) atleast one RB; (b) at least one subcarrier; or (c) at least one RB and atleast one subcarrier. That is, the second offset may be m RBs, or nsubcarriers, or m RBs and n subcarriers. The n and m are positiveintegers.

Optionally, the second offset may be an offset between the frequencydomain position of the first type of SSB and the reference frequencydomain position of the second type of SSB; or, the second offset may bean offset between the first frequency and the second frequency.

In an implementation of the present disclosure, as an example, if thesecond offset is an offset between the frequency domain position of thefirst type of SSB and the reference frequency domain position of thesecond type of SSB, the terminal device determines the second offset,which may include: after the terminal device determines the secondfrequency based on the first frequency, the terminal device determinesthe reference frequency domain position of the second type of SSBaccording to the second frequency, and then the terminal devicedetermines the second offset according to the frequency domain positionof the first type of SSB and the reference frequency domain position ofthe second type of SSB.

If the second offset is an offset between the first frequency and thesecond frequency, the terminal device determines the second offset,which may include: after the terminal device determines the secondfrequency based on the first frequency, the terminal device maydetermine the second offset according to the first frequency and thesecond frequency.

As another example, the terminal device determines the second offset,which may include: the terminal device receives third indicationinformation, and the third indication information is used for indicatingthe second offset.

Implementation 3

As shown in FIG. 10, after the terminal device detects the first type ofSSB actually sent by the network device on the first frequency, theterminal device may determine the second offset and the third offset,and then the terminal device determines the target frequency domainposition according to the second offset, the third offset and thefrequency domain position of the first type of SSB.

Specifically, a sum of the second offset and the third offset is afourth offset, that is, the terminal device may determine an offsetbetween the frequency domain position of the first type of SSB and thetarget frequency domain position according to the second offset and thethird offset, and then the terminal device may determine the targetfrequency domain position based on the frequency domain position of thefirst type of SSB and the fourth offset.

Herein, a size of the second offset may be a size of an offset betweenthe first frequency and the second frequency, or a size of an offsetbetween a frequency domain position of a referenced CORESET of RMSI andthe target frequency domain position.

Herein, a size of the third offset may be a size of an offset betweenthe frequency domain position of the first type of SSB and the frequencydomain position of the referenced CORESET of RMSI. The third offset maybe an offset between the frequency domain position of the first type ofSSB and the frequency domain position of the referenced CORESET of RMSI,or the third offset may also be an offset in other physical meaning,which is not specifically limited by implementations of the presentdisclosure.

When the third offset is of the size of the offset between the frequencydomain position of the first type of SSB and the frequency domainposition of the referenced CORESET of RMSI, the third offset may be anyone of following offsets:

a deviation between a minimum RB of the first type of SSB and a minimumRB of the referenced CORESET of RMSI;

a deviation between a maximum RB of the first type of SSB and a maximumRB of the referenced CORESET of RMSI; or

a deviation between a center RB of the first type of SSB and a center RBof the referenced CORESET of RMSI.

The minimum RB of the first type of SSB in the above content may furtherbe a minimum CRB overlapped with the first type of SSB, and the maximumRB of the first type of SSB may further be a maximum CRB overlapped withthe first type of SSB. Or, the minimum RB, the maximum RB, or the centerRB of the first type of SSB may further be a minimum or maximum RBoverlapped with the RB.

Optionally, the method 200 may further include: the terminal devicereceives second indication information, and the second indicationinformation is used for indicating the third offset. The secondindication information may be carried in the MIB of the first type ofSSB. After the terminal device receives the second indicationinformation, the terminal device may determine the third offset based onthe second indication information.

The third offset may include any one of following: (a) at least one RB;(b) at least one subcarrier; or (c) at least one RB and at least onesubcarrier. That is, the third offset may be an RB-level offset, or asubcarrier-level offset, or RB-level offset and subcarrier-leveloffsets.

When the third offset is RB-level and subcarrier-level offsets, thesecond indication information may respectively indicate the RB-leveloffset and the subcarrier-level offset of the third offset through thirdsub-information and fourth sub-information, that is, the thirdsub-information indicates the RB-level offset of the third offset andthe fourth sub-information indicates the subcarrier-level offset of thethird offset.

Implementation 4

As shown in FIG. 11, in an implementation, the terminal device mayreceive fifth indication information, and the fifth indicationinformation is used for indicating a size of a fifth offset between afrequency domain position of the first type of SSB and a targetfrequency domain position.
